Monkey butter

1 (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple, with juices; 2 3/4 cups white sugar; 4-5 ripe bananas, thinly sliced; 1/4 cup ground coconut (see note below); 1/4 cup lemon juice

toast or ice cream, for serving; glass jars

Place sliced bananas in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and top with sugar, pineapple (and juices), sugar, coconut and lemon juice, and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to medium-low and, stirring frequently, cook until mixture is thickened and has reduced down. Banana slices will break down into pieces.

Mixture is ready when it coats the back of a spoon; remove from heat and transfer to glass jars. Let cool, then refrigerate until ready to use.

Note: If you cannot find ground coconut, unsweetened shredded coconut is your next best option. Flaked coconut will work as well, but will have a chunkier texture. I used shredded coconut, Anne
